Mechanical Maintenance Manager

Newcastle

£40,000 + 6-month contract + Strong potential to go permanent + Training + Holiday

Do you have a background in mechanical facilities engineering or estates management?

Are you looking for a management role that gives you the autonomy to lead two exceptional sites in Newcastle?

This college offers an outstanding work environment in facilities management, with state-of-the-art buildings that provide a dynamic, cutting-edge space where you can showcase and develop your skills.

They have a forward-thinking, supportive culture that values continuous development, offering you the chance to work on innovative projects, maintain high-standard facilities, and contribute to the overall success of a thriving organisation.

In this role, you will ensure the sites remain operational through effective maintenance and statutory compliance, with a specific focus on mechanical plant. You will also manage small to medium-sized projects, promote health & safety, and work with procurement to secure high-quality contracted services.

The ideal candidate will be either a hands-on facilities manager or a mechanically-biased facilities engineer looking to step into management. You will have a strong mechanical facilities engineering background, with excellent fault-finding and diagnostic skills.

This is a great opportunity for a facilities manager who is currently out of work, or a mechanical facilities engineer seeking to move into a leadership role. You'll be technically challenged, given autonomy, and have the opportunity to make a real impact on an already impressive building.

The role:
*Ensure continuous site availability through effective maintenance programs and statutory compliance, focusing on mechanical plant.
* Manage small to medium-sized projects, including mechanical installations, upgrades, and repairs.
* Oversee health & safety standards with contracted resources, ensuring safe work practices.
* Work with Procurement and Estates to secure high-quality, cost-effective contracted services.
* Support the development of a skilled estates team, ensuring customer-focused service delivery.
* Manage mechanical maintenance, including BMS systems, HVAC, and gas infrastructure, and respond to emergency maintenance needs.
* Develop and update asset management systems, implement energy efficiencies, and ensure accurate maintenance and compliance records.

The person:
*Have a strong hands on mechanical facilities/ building service engineering background.
*Live in a commutable distance to Newcastle.
*Happy with a 6 month contract role with the potential to go perm (highly likely)
*Candidates will ideally have some management experience but candidate who don't but want to move into management
